One reply on “Atkins works because the food choices are “so unappealing”.”
Personally, I think the Atkins diet works because you can’t eat all of the snack foods. I mean, no one sits down in front of a TV to veg with a steak dinner. They sit there and eat a bag of crisps, candy, french fries, Twinkies, etc. Those are all foods that are banned in Atkins. Atkins just bans a lot of people’s munchies. There is no low carb replacement for snack foods. Without that, it’s hard to be docile and munching.
